Revert of Extend mapping merge to include reserved but unused mappings. (https://breakpad.appspot.com/7714003)
Reason for revert:
It is causing breakpad crash reports to be invalid (see the associated
bug).
Merging empty holes in r-x mappings was originally introduced in
https://breakpad.appspot.com/7714003 to deal with the first generation
of relro packing, which could introduce holes within a .so mapping:
[libchrome.so]
[guard region]
[libchrome.so]
However, the logic is broken for the case of two *different* adjacent
.so mappings with a guard region in the middle:
[libfoo.so]
[guard region]
[libchrome.so]
In this case the guard region is mistakenly associated with libfoo.so,
but that is not the right thing to do. In fact, the second generation of
rerlo packing added the guard region to prevent mmaps from overlapping
and to give room for the non-zero vaddr of relro-packed libraries, which
require an anticipated load bias.
As the first generation of relro packing is not used anymore, there is
no reason to keep this buggy code, which causes failures in decoding
crashes where an arbitrary library is mapped immediately before a rerlo
packed library.

> Extend mapping merge to include reserved but unused mappings.

> When parsing /proc/pid/maps, current code merges adjacent entries that
> refer to the same library and where the start of the second is equal to

> Here the mapping at 73d12000-75a90000 must be merged into 73b0c000-73b21000
> so that breakpad correctly calculates the base address for text.

> This change enables the full merge by also merging anonymous maps which
> result from unused reservation, identified as '---p' with offset 0, and
> which follow on from an executable mapping, into that executable mapping.
